Bursting at the seams with timeless classics, including Sweet Transvestite, Damn it Janet, and of course, the pelvic-thrusting, floor-filler Time Warp; The Rocky Horror show is a guaranteed non-stop party that’s ready to delight you once again with its frothy, fun, and naughty moments, much-encouraged audience participation and, of course, outrageous outfits!
Follow squeaky clean college sweethearts Brad and Janet on an adventure they’ll never forget when, by a twist of fate, their car breaks down outside a creepy mansion whilst on their way to visit their former college professor. There they meet the scandalous Dr Frank N Furter, the rippling Rocky and the vivacious Magenta and the cute couple’s lives will never be the same again…
Since it first opened in London in June 1973 at the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs, Richard O’Brien’s The Rocky Horror Show has become the world’s favourite Rock ‘N’ Roll musical, having been performed worldwide over 45 years in more than 30 countries and translated into 20 languages.
This musical extravaganza continues to play to packed houses and shows no signs of slowing down! This is theatre is in full throttle and this extraordinary new cast of West End stars includes Stephen Webb (Jersey Boys/Legally Blonde) taking on the iconic role of Frank N Furter.
Show producer Howard Panter said: “Rocky Horror has always been a show I loved, since its earliest days in the Kings Road. Richard O’Brien and I are delighted this non-stop party continues to thrill audiences across the world, and we look forward to the next 50 years!”
